Doc and Sprocket better not mind some creatures coming out of that hole in the wall, because the Fraggles are hitting the road in a brand-new live theatrical production debuting in 2025!
Fraggle Rock LIVE, written and directed by the recently-minted Creative Supervisor of Fraggle Rock John Tartaglia, will feature walk-around versions of the Fraggles, along with puppet-sized Doozers and “appearances” by the Gorgs, along with new characters we haven’t met yet. And because of course it’s a Fraggle production, there’ll be songs and neat special effects to bring the world of Fraggle Rock to life.
We even got a synopsis of the show, courtesy of The Jim Henson Company:
When Gobo Fraggle discovers a legend about a long lost Fraggle treasure called the Great Song Stone, his pals Mokey, Boober, Wembley, and Red join him on an adventure to find it, and end up celebrating the greatest treasure of all – something much more special than they could have ever imagined!
Tartaglia noted his excitement in the announcement: “There is so much momentum behind creating the first-ever Fraggle Rock live show for families and fans! We are simply blown away by the response we have seen from the many theaters who are excited to welcome the Fraggles to their communities. I can’t wait for fans to get the chance to see the Fraggles come to their hometowns!”
No tour dates have been announced yet, but we’ll be sure to let you know when they do. Until then, we’ll just have to dance our cares away.
